THE BIGGER PICTURE
After the game, the 20-year-old admitted that he loved the song and chants of the Three Lions fans and thanked them for their constant support. He also claimed that he cherishes playing in front of the English crowd, something that he does not get to do regularly as he plies his trade in Spain.

WHAT JUDE BELLINGHAM SAID
Speaking to reporters at the post-match press conference, the Los Blancos midfielder said, "I like the Beatles. I listen to the Beatles a lot. My style of music is a bit old so that's right on my street. I really enjoy playing in front of the England fans. It's a different experience for me because obviously, I play abroad.
"So when I can hear an English crowd for the first time every few months, I really enjoy it. They give me a lot of appreciation and a lot of love. And I try to give that back with my performances and my energy on the pitch."
